Woke to find chocolate milk allover one side of motorhome. Fortunately I found it before it had dried on. This is vandalism in my book, we had sweets but no one bothered to knock.j

I thought it was a 2000 year old Pagan festival, where Celts dressed as ghouls and were given sweets to appease the dead. Try as they might to claim they invented it, the Americans weren't around then!Bloody Americanism brought over by Walmart and Tesco. Just a money making exercise.

I thought they just introduced the pumpkin.

Yep, hoards of Celt's mincing around, covered on Haloween woad, knocking on cave doors, people giving them Spangles and Dolly Mixtures........ The modern version of All Hallows Day is just a trumped up version of how The Yanks see it, however, it is still practised in it's original form today, in Ireland. People copy there own heads by using turnips, (which explains a lot to me).I thought it was a 2000 year old Pagan festival, where Celts dressed as ghouls and were given sweets to appease the dead.

Two pictures. The first one is an Irish turnip. The second one is an Irishman dressed as a turnip.......
That's funny because the last turnip head I seen belonged to an englishman.....Ghrame Taylor to be precise! In fact, after englands " display " in the recent world cup, hodgson could be considered to be the king of all turnip heads!!...not forgetting the turnips he put out on the pitch!!!

Depends what the morons have to hand at the time. We haven't suffered from that sort of vandalism here but often have bottles/cans/pizza boxes dumped over the garden wall when the morons tire of carrying them.Chocolate milk would not be anyones choice of nuisance making.. eggs yes, but chocy milk ?

No, the last turnip head you seen was the picture of an Irishman dressed as a turnip holding a Thompson Sub Machine Gun. look out of your window, Wicklow is full of people with the intelligence of your average turnip.
Ohhhhhhhhhhhooooooooo. You must have won a box of assumptions in The Irish lottery! I know lots about Wicklow. Its the number one place in the world for emptying your cassette.I look out my window and see a nation of proud people, you know nothing about Wicklow or anything else for that matter. Its the nasty response from you that explains a lot about you and your intelligence.

This has also been my experience with young children.Their parents always visable and within earshot. Some of the conversations I've had with the 3_5 year olds are priceless. Last night one very young Polish girls described how she would brush her teeth after being sick from eating too many treat's. Her mother and I were in raptours. I too found all the children polite and curtious and many guided by their parents on behaviour. Brilliant and refreshing, yet I come from a working town with a lot of eastern Europeans settling here. Many of those who knocked on my door set a higher standard of behaviour than some of our home grown residents. Anyway, I'm a great a t supporter of this tradition and long may it continue.Don't blame the Yanks. As others have said we started it long before, but gave it up for a "festival" that celebrates a failed terrorist plot against a dictatorial government.
Halloween has been popular in America for many years, but you can't blame them for our yobbish attitude towards it. My daughter lives over there - she had about 20 knocks on the door and had treats for them all. Without exception they were all extremely polite with lots of pleases and thank yous. All of them were with their parents - with the older ones Mum and Dad stayed by the road, but with the young ones they came to the door with them. Result was a pleasant and harmless bit of family fun.
Yes! No doubt about it, the Irish are fantastic people. Don't rise to other members negative comments, your well above that!I look out my window and see a nation of proud people, you know nothing about Wicklow or anything else for that matter. Its the nasty response from you that explains a lot about you and your intelligence.
